Why would 9th Region officials be working a game on an 8th Region home court?

A baseball icon, RIP.

I should clarify that I did not mean to imply that the officiating showed any favors to SK. I was just pointing out that it was an interesting stat, one that you don't see often.

Trimble will win this one by 15 plus.

Interesting stat that SK had 2 more field goals than Ryle, but won by 29, wow. I guess the 29-6 FT margin helped.

Congrats!! Hitting the 1000 point mark that early is rare.

Time change........JV 1:30PM and Varsity 3:00pm.

WOW!! Coach Cates leaving? She is one of my favorite coaches.

I think it is 1:00.

The officials did apologize all over the place for originally allowing the scenario to happen. I know the band didn't intentionally do it, it's not very often that a half or quarter ends with free throws being shot, although it happened twice last night.

Ok, thanks for the info.

Does that mean it is up to coaches to stop an official from being wrong?

Correct. Happened with about 5 seconds left, then Kennedy hit a desperation half court runner at the buzzer to cut the final score to 73-72. Evidently, Kennedy could have hit shots from the parking lot last night too, LOL!

Gotcha. Stupid rule.

Did you find anything that doesn't allow them to be shot again? Referees are not infallible, therefore their incompetence needs to be corrected sometimes. I mean, they didn't just slip up and let the band play during one FT attempt, they originally allowed all three attempts, while the GC asst coach is trying to get their attention on the matter.

Wow...........not much on subtlety are you? So, I assume you are predicting an easy win when Gallatin plays Campbell?

Everything happened exactly as you explained it. The officials were definitely not in mid season form.

Good win, congrats to Coach Richey and the Birds.

Bowen stepped up big tonight, her career high helped Gallatin hold off a furious Williamstown rally. Kudos to Williamstown for not laying down when down early, and kudos to Williamstown's Michaela Kennedy for shooting lights out. It was not a well played game, but it was entertaining.

I believe that the home team usually is relied upon to call in the box score to any newspapers. I am sure Coach Holland wasn't real anxious to do so after a disappointing loss. As a coach myself, I can sympathize a little bit if that is the case.

Congrats to her and her family, very cool!

Congrats to Coach West and his team on a good win.

Congrats to Coach Leep and his team.

That too! Sounds like SK has lots of bodies to throw at you. Looking forward to seeing them play.

Sounds like SK played real well in the 2nd half, congrats to Coach Stowers and his team. Shelby County hasn't had a regional tournament win since 2010 when they upset South Oldham in the first round on SK's homecourt, the year before they split with Collins. This could be the year they advance in the 8th Region tournament since the split.
